This log cabin is quilted in the ditch, which is a lot of fabric to quilt through by hand. The curling tendrils quilted around the outer sash contrast nicely with the geometry of the logs, however, the logs themselves are the stars of this quilt by virtue of the beautiful prints out which they are made.

Log Cabin quilt – Barn Raising variation
The Log Cabin is among the most versatile of quilt patterns. The Log Cabin Barn Raising variation is a perfect example. The maker strategically pieced the “logs” of fabric to create an overall radiating pattern. She used a wide array of print fabrics in shades of green and ivory with pops of burgundy used as center squares. Every “log” is hand quilted. We think this quilt is visually interesting and full of texture. (Item 1048)

We think this quilt is visually interesting and full of texture. (Item 2062)

Here is a very different Log Cabin and to say the least, an overlooked quilt called a Hidden Nine Patch. Can a quilt be at the same time tranquil and vibrant? This one is because it is made of some very exceptional fabrics in beautiful combinations. This is a king size quilt for a king size bed.

The Courthouse Steps quilt pattern is a variation on a traditional Log Cabin. In the case of this quilt, the maker alternated blocks of paisley print fabrics with solids. All “logs” are quilted in the ditch. There is an enormous amount of hand quilting as a result. A wide black border is carries a hand quilted garland pattern. The contrasting colors of this quilt are particularly interesting and make this a versatile quilt. This quilt is one of our favorites (and we may keep it for ourselves!).

The Log Cabin in the Round is made by arranging bars of fabric (or “logs”) in a way that creates arcs or curves. This is done with a piecing technique whereby the light colored logs are thicker than the colorful darker logs. Matched up, the variance in thickness gives what appears to be a curve or arc. The maker quilted every log “in the ditch.” Hand quilted feather patterns cover all of the remaining space. Colors in this quilt include various gray, black and burgundy. The quilter chose a variety of print fabrics and pieced them over a light background for contrast. Item 2044

Imagine rectangular “logs” of fabric arranged in such a way as to create curves! This is a very interesting variation of a traditional Log Cabin Quilt pattern. The light “logs” are actually thicker than the colorful “logs”. This difference in size makes piecing much more difficult but it also creates the resulting round shapes. The quilter did a superb job of piecing this quilt. Every log is quilted “in the ditch.” Hand quilted feather patterns cover all of the remaining space. Fabrics are a mix of solids and prints in a wide array of colors
